ORDER ADOPTING THE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
AND DISMISSING THE COMPLAINT
WITHOUT PREJUDICE AND WITHOUT ISSUANCE AND SERVICE OF PROCESS
This case was filed as a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action. Plaintiff is proceeding pro se. The matter
is before the Court for review of the Report and Recommendation (Report) of the United States
Magistrate Judge suggesting the Complaint be dismissed without prejudice and without issuance and
service of process. The Report was made in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636 and Local Civil Rule
73.02 for the District of South Carolina.
The Magistrate Judge makes only a recommendation to this Court. The recommendation has
no presumptive weight. The responsibility to make a final determination remains with the Court.
Mathews v. Weber, 423 U.S. 261, 270 (1976). The Court is charged with making a de novo
determination of those portions of the Report to which specific objection is made, and the Court may
accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge or
recommit the matter with instructions. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
The Magistrate Judge filed the Report on February 3, 2017, and the Clerk entered Plaintiff’s
objections on February 21, 2017. The Court has reviewed Plaintiff’s objections, but holds them to
be without merit. Hence, it will enter judgment accordingly.
Here is Plaintiff’s objections in their entirety: “I, the Plaintiff Andre Juste object[ ] [to the]
Report and Recommendation[.] [I] desire to appear for a fair trial and fairness hearing. I entered
[my] request to have a jury trial as amended . . . by objecting [to] this Report and
Recommendation[.]” Objections 1. Given Plaintiff’s failure to lodge a specific objection to the
Report, the Court will overrule this objection.
After a thorough review of the Report and the record in this case pursuant to the standard set
forth above, the Court overrules Plaintiff’s objections, adopts the Report, and incorporates it herein.
2
Therefore, it is the judgment of this Court the Complaint is DISMISSED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE and without issuance and service of process.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Signed this 28th day of February, 2017, in Columbia, South Carolina.
